Modern database applications show a growing demand for efficient and dynamic management of intervals, particularly for temporal and spatial data or for constraint handling. Common...
Data allocation is a key performance factor for parallel database systems (PDBS). This holds especially for data warehousing environments where huge amounts of data and complex an...
A genetic algorithm scheme with a stochastic genotype/phenotype relation is proposed. The mechanisms responsible for this intermediate level of uncertainty, are inspired by the bio...
This paper discusses the implementation of optimizaiion based DSSs. A n approach is proposed that will enable OR/MS analysts to develop this kind of system much more eociently tha...
